2 Corinthians 13:1 This is the third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established
Deuteronomy 19:15 One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin, in any sin that he sins: at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall the matter be established
Deuteronomy 17:6 At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witnesses, shall he that is worthy of death be put to death; but at the mouth of one witness he shall not be put to death.
Matthew 18:16 But if he will not hear you, then take with you one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.
And so on..
On this blog, let’s just keep it simple. When we are discussing a particular passage or group of passages and there are two or more opposing views, let’s just agree to set that passage aside. It will not be considered a witness for that discussion. In fact, is it reasonable to set the whole chapter aside and go to other places in Scripture to start building witnesses?
For instance, Genesis Chapter One. I believe it supports my view. Those that hold a differing view claim that is supports a view contrary to mine. It seems that we can both make a reasonable case one way or the other. As such, let’s set it aside and go into Scripture.
Sound reasonable?
